Can anyone tell me if the ultimate shadow is bedded? How is the factory stock and accuracy?

Thanks - I could not find that spec.
I called Winchester in Utah and was told since 2006 all model 70's are bedded whether they have a wood or synthetic stock. The nice man also said the ultimate shadow has a "true" spotter barrel which is a heavier than the featherweight.
